This month's blog discusses the triaxial shear test of soil. It focuses on three different test methods, all with variable requirements based on soil types and properties of individual specimens.
Quick, name the most widely used and cost-effective scientific instrument in your laboratory. Some possibilities come to mind, but our argument is for the ordinary test sieve. In this month’s blog post we discuss the purpose of sieves and how to select the right sieve to fit your particle sizing needs.
在本月的博客中 post we discuss the equipment and procedures that are used to perform the ASTM and AASHTO test method for 比重 of Soil Solids.
This blog provides an informative guide on why direct shear testing is essential, and we guide you on what equipment you need to perform the test based on ASTM D3080 and AASHTO T 236.
在本月的博客中, we examine the civil engineering laboratory equipment needed for typical operations performed where field laboratories for construction materials testing are required. With so many possible variations in specific project requirements, we break it down by application.
在这篇博客, it will discuss setting up and furnishing temporary field-testing labs with essential laboratory equipment. Field labs are generally limited to a few particular tests, but no matter the material, most require the same essentials to measure properties like size, 重量, 和水分.
在这篇博文中 we discuss why it is important to perform strength tests of soil subgrades for pavement design, and also review what is needed for each type of test method whether it be in the lab or out in the field including the DCP test.
Measuring the particle size distribution of fine-grained soils like clay and silt is best performed using the soil hydrometer test. 在这篇博文中, we provide some guidance from sample prepping to performing the test procedure by following the ASTM D7928 standard test method.
在这篇博客, we briefly discuss what soil permeability (hydraulic conductivity) is and detail what equipment can be used for a wide array of soil permeability tests.
Proper soil compaction increases strength and stability resulting in successful structures and pavements. This blog will discuss the various means of testing soil compaction, which methods are suitable for your project, and the importance of having the right personnel in place.
